As long as you don't overheat the engine, sometimes it's good to lock out 4th gear. When towing weight or doing some major hills, it's best to have the torque converter locked via higher rpms to avoid overheating the tranny fluid.
That happens frequently around here where people lug snowmachines and boats around, usually with trucks though. I assume it applies to the world of 9k automatics as well (?). I have a manual and never think about it......
